I used to belong to a group of friends, but as we got older (not by much), all four of us drifted in our own direction, fueled mainly by our vastly different passions. But the four of us still have fun together, and now we've sorta added Girl Straight Best Friend. But now it's mainly me, Girl Straight Best Friend, and Gay Best Friend. <BR/><BR/>Gay Best Friend didn't call me after his date, or tell me anything. He waited to tell me face to face (I was mad at the time, but now that I think about it, face-to-face was better than him telling me over the phone...except that I gave him a shitass response). GBF has been among the most influential people in my life, and I'm glad Jon brings you the same amount of happiness and contentment and just wholeness that people like him can do. <BR/><BR/>:DJoshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00721894881214675973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832949216165038074.post-32653453561356491132008-12-12T09:08:00.000-08:002008-12-12T09:08:00.000-08:00I'm not sure if you've read my first Fireside Chat...I'm not sure if you've read my first Fireside Chat on my blog, but it talks about how I came out, then I thought I wasn't gay, so I went back into the closet. I contacted all my old friends who I felt were "disappointed" with my coming out and apologized. They embraced me and loved me. Now that I realize that I'm not that person, but I'm a homosexual, I realize how hurtful my "best friends" are. When I needed them as a homosexual, they weren't around. When I conformed to their idea of normality, I was welcomed and loved. I've never really had great close friends (a couple), but I'm very happy that you have Jon on your life! :) Thanks for sharing your heart with us.Joie Mayfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13990340512137818562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832949216165038074.post-69783534571507091212008-12-12T07:58:00.000-08:002008-12-12T07:58:00.000-08:00to me it has been very good/important to have one ...to me it has been very good/important to have one true friend. when we are together i can feel the weight of the world lifted off of me. <BR/><BR/>jayjay.osahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16628941537965661528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832949216165038074.post-10405931489386444332008-12-12T05:02:00.000-08:002008-12-12T05:02:00.000-08:00It's always nice to have a great support system an...It's always nice to have a great support system and I am glad that you and Jon are very close. I think you could call him your best friend for the mere fact that he called you so late to tell you about his date. Remember it is very hard to find good friends so appreciate all you have with Jon. As for the "fake" you don't even worry about it. We all wear masks and don't like people to see the real us.Diary of a Mad Latino Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14549287121453304862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832949216165038074.post-46101807451802249022008-12-12T04:16:00.000-08:002008-12-12T04:16:00.000-08:00It's good to hear that you have someone you could ...It's good to hear that you have someone you could actually be with and be who you REALLY are.
